Supporting Safer Internet Day

Posted on: February 7th 2018

For the second year running, Amery Hill School has got together with hundreds of organisations across the country to promote the safe, responsible and positive use of digital technology for children and young people. Co-ordinated in the UK by the UK Safer Internet Centre,the slogan for this year’s campaign was ‘Create, Connect and Share Respect: a better internet starts with you.’

Speaking about the school’s involvement, Assistant Headteacher, Mrs Joleen Riley, commented “Safer Internet Day offered the opportunity to highlight positive uses of technology and to explore the role we all play in helping to create a better and safer online community. This year we hosted a parent’s information evening, as well as whole school assemblies and tutor time activities to help reinforce the message. Part of educating our students to become valuable members of society is to support them to make sensible choices about their internet use, so that they know how to remain safe on-line.”
